3 Cultural heritage domain With the advent of new digital information technologies, access to cultural heritage repositories is obviously improved. The documentation, management and preservation of cultural artifacts and collections still seems to be rather a complex task. Even in homogeneous environments (relational databases etc), there are problems in the exchange of information, because of different structures and syntaxes used. In cultural heritage collections, the problem of heterogeneity is even more complex, as these collections contain multiple material. 3

4 Interoperability issues The continuous development of various metadata schemas leads to the need to integrate all these standards, in such a way that data and information exchange and sharing can be fully achieved. Cultural heritage communities explore several methodologies: to reduce search time to guarantee unified access to these resources (under a global schema) 4

5 Ontology-based integration "An ontology is a formal, explicit specification of a shared conceptualization". (Gruber, 1993) Ontologies can play a leading role in this area, as they are considered to be an important building block for integration architectures. provide the means for defining common vocabularies, representing the domain knowledge, facilitating at the same time knowledge sharing and reuse among heterogeneous and distributed application systems. can act as a mediating schema that semantically integrates all meta(data) 5

6 Our integration scenario 6

7 VRA Core 4.0 (1/2) Visual Resources Association's Data Standards Committee + Network Development and MARC Standards Office of the Library of Congress (LC) Provides guidance on describing works of visual culture, collections, as well as images that document them. Two XML Schema versions Unrestricted version (specifies the basic structure and imposes no restrictions on the values entered into any of the elements, sub-elements, or attributes) Restricted version (extends the unrestricted one by imposing controlled type lists and date formats) 7

8 VRA Core 4.0 (2/2) Record types: Work, Image, Collection 19 elements (with their subelements) (agent, culturalcontext, date, description, inscription, location, material, measurements, relation, rights, source, stateedition, styleperiod, subject, technique, textref, title, worktype) global attributes (datadate, extent, href, pref, refid, rules, source, vocab, xml:lang) 8

9 A VRA record in XML <?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?> <vra> <work id="w_000777" refid="000597" source="history of Art Visual Resources Collection, UCB"> <agentset> <agent> <name type="personal">cropsey, Jasper Francis</name> <dates type="life"> <earliestdate>1823</earliestdate> <latestdate>1900</latestdate> </dates> </agent> </agentset> <dateset> <date type="creation"> <earliestdate>1860</earliestdate> <latestdate>1860</latestdate> </date> </dateset> <inscriptionset> <inscription> <author vocab="ulan" refid=" ">cropsey, Jasper Francis</author> <position>lower center</position> <text>autumn-on the Hudson River/J. F Cropsey/London 1860</text> </inscription> </inscriptionset> </work> </vra> 9

10 CIDOC Conceptual Reference Model (CIDOC/CRM, Version 5.0.2) CIDOC Documentation Standards Group (1999) formal extensible ontology, which aims at providing a conceptual representation of cultural heritage domain, promoting semantic interoperability and integration. object-oriented model composed of entities, organized into a hierarchy, and semantically related to each other properties. targets to cover contextual information: the historical, geographical, and theoretical background in which individual items are placed and which gives them much of their significance and value defines the complex interrelationships between objects, actors, events, places, and other concepts used in the cultural heritage domain consists of a hierarchy of 86 classes and 137 properties. 10

11 A sample of CIDOC/CRM properties Property Id and Name Entity - Domain Entity - Range P1 is identified by (identifies) E1 CRM Entity E61 Appellation P2 has type (is type of) E1 CRM Entity E55 Type P4 has time-span (is time span of) P14 carried out by (performed) P53 has former or current location (is former or current location of) P108 has produced (was produced by) E2 Temporal Entity E7 Activity E18 Physical Thing E12 Production E52 Time-Span E39 Actor E53 Place E24 Physical Man-Made Thing 11

12 Mapping methodology Path-oriented approach: a mapping from a source schema to a target schema transforms each instance of the source schema into a valid instance of the target schema. VRA paths based on XPath equivalent CIDOC/CRM paths. VRA path: a sequence of VRA elements and subelements, starting from the schema root element <vra> separated by the slash symbol (/). CIDOC/CRM path: a chain in the form entity-property-entity (e-p-e), such that the entities associated by a property correspond to the property's domain and range. 12

13 Mapping Description Language (MDL) The syntax of MDL (in EBNF notation) is: 13

14 Agent element (work level) (1/7) Element <agent> Subelements: <name> Attribute: type Values: personal, corporate, family, other <dates> Attribute: type Values: life, activity, other Subelements: <earliestdate> <latestdate> <culture> <role> <attribution> 14

16 Agent element (work level) (3/7) VRA: Possible values for type attribute= personal, corporate, family, other. The value of the type attribute of the subelement name in the VRA paths defines different equivalent CIDOC/CRM paths. 16

31 The use of MDL Metadata exchange from the VRA paths to equivalent CIDOC/CRM paths Transformation of XPath queries posed on XML-based metadata into equivalent queries on the CIDOC/CRM ontology 31

32 Conclusions Mapping VRA elements to CIDOC/CRM paths proved to be a rather timeconsuming activity, which requires a deep conceptual work. CIDOC/CRM provides: very rich structuring mechanisms for metadata descriptions and an abstract but fine-grained conceptualization for events, objects, agents, things, etc. the combination of a wide range of classes and properties that generates a large number of conceptual expressions that need to be examined thoroughly (classes and properties hierarchies). The use of the classes E12 Production and E65 Creation reveal one of the main characteristics of CIDOC/CRM, event-orientation. The <type> attribute assigned to several elements and subelements defines different semantic mappings, making mapping even more complex The use of several global attributes (e.g. <xml:lang> attribute) expands further the CIDOC/CRM paths 32

33 Future Research Directions To validate our approach, we plan to test the proposed mappings by running real life examples and evaluate the results. Another direction to explore is the definition of the reverse semantic mappings from the CIDOC/CRM ontology to the VRA Core 4.0, in order to enrich the mapping procedure proposed by our research group 33
